Installation Requirements

• Pole-mounting: Two metal straps (not included)

• Shielded Category 5 (or above) cabling with drain wire
should be used for all outdoor wired Ethernet connections
and should be grounded through the AC ground of the PoE.

We recommend that you protect your networks from harmful
outdoor environments and destructive ESD events with
industrial-grade, shielded Ethernet cable from Ubiquiti. For
more details, visit ui.com/toughcable

• Surge protection should be used for all outdoor installations.
We recommend that you use two Ethernet Surge Protectors,
model ETH-SP, one near the camera and the other at the
entry point to the building. The ETH-SP will absorb power
surges and safely discharge them into the ground.
